1. The plagiarism checker isn’t so much an instructional tool, but more of an assessment tool. It helps me to ensure that I am actually assessing what the student knows and how they express that knowledge in writing. I don’t believe that it would create any new problems, but it might cause more students to fail more assignments initially until they realize they really do need to proceed their own work. This tool tells me that I value academic integrity. Some students would probably hate this tool, but I think many of them would appreciate that it keeps people accountable. I think they would also appreciate that this is the tool that I would pick, because it’s not necessarily about making things easier, it’s about making sure that people are genuinely learning and showing what they’ve learned. 2. The giant tablet on the wall is just unnecessary and would probably allow me to rely too heavily on technology, but it would be so fun and it would allow me to demonstrate a lesson in so many different ways, and would hopefully be very engaging for students. It would allow me to show things more accurately to students rather than hoping they find the thing I’ve uploaded on Canvas, having to point to the tiny TV mounted on my classroom wall, or simply walking around the room and showing students individually what I’m talking about. I think students would love this technology and they would love that they get to use it too. Of course, it may become a big distraction, and students may come to rely on it too much as well. But this shows that I value having many ways of showing things to students and making sure that every student can see what I’m teaching about or what I’m demonstrating on the board. It shows that I value the ability to demonstrate to students instead of just explaining my instructions to them. I think students would really appreciate this in a teacher and in a classroom.
